The purple-gold dragon shrank its neck in fright and nervously stared at the sky. It was truly a case of one thing subduing another.
"This..." Chen Nan was shocked again. The two-colored light spheres flew into the sky. He wasn't surprised, after all, similar things had happened before. But he never expected that the mysterious jade ruyi could also fly on its own, which he found incredible.
"It has never seen the light of day for thousands of years, and it has never left that underground lake on its own. Why has it been exhibiting so many unusual phenomena lately? Could it be... that it has gained enough power after absorbing the Dragon Essence, or... that it had been dormant all along and has only recently begun to awaken?" Chen Nan was filled with doubt.
After the two colored orbs formed a Tai Chi diagram, they burst forth with dazzling light, hanging in the sky like a sun. Then, they quickly rushed into the encirclement of the battle between the invincible powerhouses, heading towards the jade palm and Hou Yi's bow.
This astonishing turn of events left even the invincible powerhouses in the air somewhat bewildered, never expecting such a strange Tai Chi diagram to suddenly appear. Everyone exerted their strength simultaneously, striking at the Tai Chi diagram, even the mysterious middle-aged man who had been resurrected from the ancient tomb was no exception, unleashing a domineering punch that struck two points.
What surprised everyone even more was what happened next. A dazzling radiance shone directly into the arena, and a crystal-clear jade ruyi emitted boundless light, absorbing the vast, ocean-like power within the arena. All the power vanished without a trace in an instant.
Everyone was shocked, their expressions filled with disbelief. Without pausing, the jade scepter unleashed a dazzling burst of light, sweeping towards the Taiji diagram. It also enveloped the jade hand and Houyi's bow.
The changes that occurred in the air left everyone on the ground dumbfounded; no one had expected such an unusual situation to occur at this critical juncture.
Finally, the Tai Chi diagram and the jade ruyi became entangled, both abandoning the two divine artifacts in the arena. They spun continuously, unleashing terrifying fluctuations.
At this moment, the invincible masters in the arena unanimously believed that the Tai Chi diagram and the jade ruyi were magical treasures of cultivators, and that two people with extraordinary power were secretly controlling them, attempting to seize these divine objects. The two of them then engaged in a fierce battle.
The chaotic battle erupted again. The Tai Chi diagram and jade ruyi were enveloped in the battle circle, with flashes of light and surging energy in the air. As the mysterious man inside fought against the onslaught, he kept glancing at the jade ruyi and the Tai Chi diagram, his eyes flashing with strange light.
"Today I relinquish my immortal spiritual energy and attain the body of a Great Demon. From this day forward, I shall be called the Great Demon, and you will all become offerings to the heavens at my birthplace! Ugh..."
The Great Demon roared to the sky, his eyes completely losing their luster and becoming utterly empty, as if they could devour the entire world.
"You all should die!"
With a single punch, the entire world trembled, and a raging power surged through the sky like a raging torrent. Among the numerous invincible experts, not one dared to withstand this punch alone. They gathered together and launched a combined attack on the great demon.
"Boom!"
High above, lightning flashed and thunder roared, sending several figures flying backward. The Great Demon sent many invincible experts flying with a single punch, his eyes utterly empty as he indifferently surveyed the heavy responsibility.
"I told you, you all have to die!"
A palm-sized blood sword slowly flew up from his hair, then began to tremble violently. A towering wave of blood surged in the air, finally transforming into a red beam that slashed towards the crowd.
Everyone retreated hastily, no one daring to confront it, but once the Blood Sword was drawn, it was destined to return stained with blood. Dragon Knight Rella was the first to bear the brunt, and the tragically beautiful Blood Sword instantly grew countless times larger, transforming into a three-zhang-long giant sword, which crashed down with the force of Mount Tai.
"puff"
"Awooo..."
With a burst of blood-red light that seemed to fill the sky, Rella's dragon mount was cleaved in two, its corpse falling to the ground!
The dragon of Dragon Knight Rella was a rare Western dragon. It was about ten zhang long, its entire body shimmering with silver light, as if filled with dazzling brilliance. However, in just an instant, this divine Western dragon died a violent death, cut in two at the waist.
A mournful dragon roar echoed through the heavens and earth, and a torrent of blood rained down. Rella narrowly escaped death, avoiding the great demon's attack.
Blood Sword, seeing the dragon that had followed him for many years perish, his eyes widened in fury, and he roared in grief, "Great Demon, today I will fight you to the death!"
Although Rella had lost the dragon, he was still able to fly. He unleashed his full potential as if he were desperate, wielding his silver spear, which created towering waves as he thrust it toward the great demon.
Seeing this, the other invincible experts also seized the opportunity to launch their fiercest attack on the Great Demon. Everyone knew that it would be difficult to fight against this supreme expert who did not belong to the human world on their own.
But at that moment, thunder roared high in the sky, and countless enormous bolts of lightning struck down, striking the numerous invincible masters. Everyone was shocked; the great demon's power had exceeded the limits allowed by the mortal realm, drawing divine punishment and affecting everyone involved.
"Boom!"
Thunder roared high in the sky, lightning flashed everywhere, and massive bolts of lightning struck. Everyone scrambled to fight back. Only the Great Demon remained unaffected, his eyes empty and indifferent as he stared at the heavy responsibility.
The purple-gold dragon on the ground whispered, "This person is terrifying. He used the power of divine punishment to kill many powerful figures, yet he sealed his own bodily functions and merged into the void. Terrifying, truly terrifying!"
Duanmu, the most composed member of the Kunlun demon clan, knew that the great demon before him was practically invincible and began to ponder countermeasures. At this moment, the jade ruyi and the Taiji diagram came into his view. The two were still entangled, emitting incomparably brilliant light that forced the lightning bolts to stay away.
Even when massive bolts of lightning occasionally intrude, they are silently absorbed by the jade ruyi. At the same time, the two objects once again gather the jade hand and Houyi's bow beside them, causing the two divine objects to continuously revolve around them, making it difficult for them to break free.
A glint of blue light flashed in Duanmu's eyes. Like the others, he believed that the Jade Ruyi and the Taiji Diagram were the magical treasures of two people with extraordinary abilities. Now, only these "two people" could fight against the Great Demon, and he came up with the idea of using one to devour another.
Duanmu opened his mouth and spat out a piece of radiant green wood, hurling it towards the Great Demon. Originally only half a foot long, the wood rapidly expanded upon contact with the wind. In the end, it transformed into a colossal tree tens of feet long, unleashing towering green flames, and crashed down viciously towards the Great Demon.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky, a giant tree stretched across the heavens and earth, and the entire world trembled violently. The giant tree, with the force of Mount Tai pressing down, stirred up towering waves that enveloped the great demon beneath it.
The Great Demon let out a cold snort, and demonic flames surged around him. Behind him, countless enormous demonic shadows appeared, as tall as mountains, piercing the clouds.
